Yeah those are gloves I made from scratch. You have a link to that tweet? I'm curious to see what they look like.

Great look. Love the helmets after you removed the C.

Submit them to Uni Watch. They tweet it out usually. Might get noticed by someone!

Not a bad idea, actually.

Have you tried using the logo on a helmet like the new NFL "concept" helmets? Some of those are decent looking.

Great as always. IMO, the baseball C has to go and red husky patch doesn't work. Personally, I like the original concept better because of the reference to MBB elements in it but these do look sharp. I'm partial to the two tone helmet but I'm more flexible about helmet design than a lot of posters on the board. I still think and updated version of this would make a bas ass chrome alternative helmet.

Sweet. I agree that the 'C' on the back of the helmet is not need though. I would actually like to use that space for players to have paw print or C stickers on the back to show how hard they have worked and what they have earned like Ohio St's helmets.

PERFECT idea.. helmet stickers... That's ingenious.. Another motivating factor for the players... Love the idea...

Think I'm gonna edit a version with normal logos on the sleeves w/ gray outline (instead of the red logos) and no hook C on the rear of the helmets... see how that looks...

Yep, I agree. But a chrome version of this with new logo would look great as an alternative helmet.

what about using the "husky eye blue" as a trim somewhere-similar to the Seattle Seahawk lime green trim.

UPDATE 3/6:

  • Dropped the hook C from the helmets
  • Eliminated red stripe pattern from the front of the jerseys, which gives it a cleaner look.
  • Replaced the all-red sleeve logos with the regular logos. Logos looked more appealing with red trim rather than gray IMO.

I think these are the best yet. I'd really like to see how these look on a player or at least a mannequin. I like the wordmark on the side of the pants.

How come we don't petition to wear white at home, at least in hot weather early games? Or even a change of pace? So stodgy UConn is. Their hoop uneys s&ck too, with the old 99 striping.

Still partial to these:

uconnconcept_accdupshoulderhome-png.7934


but the ones a post or two above are nice as well.

The low resolution on this site really doesn't do them justice. I drew all of these in extraordinarily high resolution, but they're too big to post on this board. I'm probably going to take the suggestion of submitting these to Uni Watch.

A white out at home would be sick in these unis. I was thinking the same thing after I finished the away uniform.

Do you have any designs that utilize the Block C style from a few years back? I'd be curious to see how it would look with these aesthetics.

Thanks for the work. No red please, though. UConn is blue and not red. I remember being confused a few year's back when Nike had a special event uniform for UConn women's basketball team that was gray with red lettering.

Red as an alternative. More and more teams using colors beyond their traditional colors. UConn needs to emulate these programs, not Penn State.

We need to change our awful helmets...I like this idea. Need to make the football uni's our own brand.

Yeah, I've been starting to consider making red unis again. If for no other reason than to just see what it looks like.

I actually tried the block C on the back of the helmets, and it was frankly even more obnoxious than the hook C on the back.
